Retrospective evaluation of lipiduria in urine from 140 dogs and 74 cats.
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundLipiduria has recognized physiopathological and diagnostic relevance in human medicine, while data regarding its relevance in animals remain limited. HYPOTHESIS/
objectivesTo determine the frequency of lipiduria in dogs and cats and to assess whether lipiduria represents an epiphenomenon or is associated with animal-related factors. ANIMALS: Urinalysis results from 140 dogs and 74 cats.
methodsRetrospective study. Cases were included if complete urinalysis data were available. Animals were classified as lipiduric or non-lipiduric. Animal characteristics, as well as selected hematologic and urinary abnormalities, were compared between groups. In dogs, factors potentially associated with the presence of lipiduria were further evaluated using multivariable logistic regression analysis.
resultsOverall, 58% (125/214) animals were lipiduric, including 46% (64/140) dogs and 82% (61/74) cats. Lipiduria was significantly more frequent in cats (82%) than in dogs (46%) (P < .00001). Among cats, lipiduric individuals were older (mean age 9.5 years; SD ± 4.5; P = .02). In dogs, females (63%; 40/64) were overrepresented in the lipiduric group (P = .0008). Lipiduric dogs had a higher mean urine pH (6.4; SD ± 1.2; P = .00054) and more frequently exhibited struvite crystalluria (17%; 11/64; P = .003). In multivariable analysis, female dogs had 3.5-fold higher odds of lipiduria (OR, 3.5; 95% CI, 1.7-7.3), and the odds of lipiduria increased by 5% for each 0.1-unit increase in urine pH. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Lipiduria was a common finding in this study, particularly in cats. In dogs, our findings suggest a potential link between lipiduria, female status, and high urine pH. ABSTRACT TRANSLATED TO FRENCH:
